"Screen scrape" the plain text from a region or an UI control on the screen.
Automate user interface actions like clicking on controls and links and writing text to editable controls.
Generate code to easily implement such scenarios in your own app.
ScreenScraper Studio is built on the top of SDK, that's why we use to say it includes SDK. You can do programming against SDK on the machine where you installed Studio - that's the recommended way. Once your app is ready you need only SDK as part of its deployment.
ScreenScraper SDK is a collection of software libraries that can be embedded into your app. It includes:
TextCaptureX exposes directly the screen scraping interfaces. It lets you:
Extract the plain text out of a region or control on the screen or the entire text from a scrolling/hidden window.
Find text position on the screen.
Get text font and color.
UIElement allows interacting with windows or controls created by a 3rd party app as they would be within your own app. It identifies them based on a readable text moniker (XPath like) that doesn't depend of their size/position on the screen and it is invariant on different runs of the hosting app.
TSelection allows selecting interactively a region or a window on the screen.
